5 Ways to Share the Gospel

By Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

From an April 2019 general conference address.

1. Draw Close to God

The closer you draw to our Heavenly Father, the more His light and joy will shine from within you. Others will notice and they will ask about it.

2. Fill Your Heart with Love for Others

Strive to emulate the love of Christ and have compassion for others. Love them and treat them as fellow children of Heavenly Father.

3. Strive to Walk the Path of Discipleship

As your love for God and His children deepens, so does your commitment to follow Jesus Christ. Walking the path of discipleship takes practice. Talking with others about your faith will become normal and natural. In fact, the gospel will be such an essential, precious part of your life that it would feel unnatural not to talk about it with others.

4. Share What Is in Your heart

In whatever ways seem natural and normal to you, share with people why Jesus Christ and His Church are important to you.

5. Trust the Lord to Work His Miracles

It’s not your job to convert people. That is the role of the Holy Ghost. Your role is to love God and love your neighbors. Show this by inviting them to come and see, come and help, and come and belong. God will work miracles through you to bless His precious children.
